Hey guys,

New guy here from Southern Indiana. I just got my first SHO! It's a bone stock 2013 w/ PP and about 80k on the clock. Love it so far and I'm already planning on what I'm gonna do to it, got an intake on the way already and surely more to come.

Welcome and congrats!  Maintenance first will lay a solid foundation for any mods you plan 2 do :)  First Ford?  How did u come by the SHO?
2007 Ford Edge SEL, Powerstop F/R Brake Kit, TXT LED 6000K Lo & Hi Beams, W16W LED Reverse Bulbs, 3BSpec 2.5w Map Lights, 5W Cree rear dome lights, 5W Cree cargo light, DTBL LED Taillights

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Oh no, I've had many Fords! I come from a devoted Ford family lol. I had a 2013 F150 before this but decided I needed to lower my monthly payments due to deciding to save for a house. Living in Indiana I needed something that'd be good for year round driving, especially in wintery conditions so the AWD was a definite selling point. But I liked the affordability of used SHO's as well as them just making a good fun performance daily driver. I did get a powertrain warranty with it but I plan on doing all the usual basic maintenance to it sooner than later.  I got my bachelors degree in Automotive Technology and I've been working in the industry since I was 18 so I'm rather well versed with a wrench, look forward to having something I can wrench on again!
